Steam near movie posters?

That is a good idea, would certainly protect the poster. Never done it myself, do you think it would de-value the poster though? providing it was a poster that had any value?

But I would most certainly look into it.

I have heard some collectors may be reluctant to buy posters in this manner, that is if you were planning to sell them at any time in the future, but I guess it depends on how desirable or rare the posters are. But if you want to keep them for yourself, then I'd certainly consider having them encapsulated.

As for me, I've only ever encapsulated certificates and a couple of old maps I had from many years back, and it has helped to protect them without a doubt.
